The house was perfect for our family of 10!!! There was plenty of dishes and cookware. Thanks to the host for the cookies, flowers, candy, milk, oil, syrup, and waffles; oh and dog treats! The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were well stocked with shampoo and condition even face wash! The house has air conditioning and was very comfortable. The back yard was secure and perfect for our younger ones. The screened in back porch was perfect spot for watching the kids and pups. The host provided toys for the little kids. We all felt like we were home. Thanks so much for a wonderful experience.

Beautiful and spotless home in a convenient location. I was in town for work and my wife and kids were able to come along. The kids love the backyard and playhouse, and the yard is fully fenced so we feel safe letting them run around. They had a fun at the new Children's Museum. We walked over to a nearby restaurant for breakfast, which was clean, good food and value. Also, took a walk around the neighborhood and down to the park and boat landing. We will be back again!

We had a great trip to granite peak and this was a great home to have as our base while we were there. We stay at many vrbos and this was probably the most hospitable and accommodating host and property we have encountered

This is one of the best properties I have stayed in. The attention to detail, comfort, safety and thoughtful provisions were all very much appreciated. I had my dogs with me and bowls, dog towels, waste bags, treats and furniture covers were all delightfully provided. The back yard was clean and secure. The flowers, danish and milk in the refrigerator were very much appreciated. Instructions were clear, the home was clean, comfortable and all of the linens smelled fresh. I will definitely book this property again when I’m in the area.Thank you Melissa for your pre arrival communications and making my stay so enjoyable.

This Wausau property checked all tho boxes for our group. It was clean and all the little touches made us feel right at home. The little notes updated us on what was expected from the owner and the house’s little quirks. If my group decides to go back to Wausau again we would stay in the Vrbo in a heart beat.

The Yawkey Museum was excellent! We thoroughly enjoyed each exhibit. The weather was great - Oct 20 - peak colors.
The house was super clean and adequate in every way. Not fancy but solid.
4.0
The house was very clean! Two comments - the description should list that the AC upstairs is dependent on one window unit and we were unable to adjust the thermostat below 72 degrees. The shower curtain on the upstairs shower should be changed to opaque on the window side.
Otherwise, the house was charming, functional and clean.

Melissa is the most amazing host. The house was immaculate and stocked with towels, snacks, coffee, teas and even a spare toothbrush (which was needed)! Owner communication was spot on and so appreciated. I will definitely be back again!

We really enjoyed our stay at this comfortable and cozy home. We were visiting family and attending nearby events so the location was perfect. We experienced a welcoming environment with all of the conveniences offered. Great neighborhood for walks. We enjoyed our stay!

Booked the house for the 4'th of July weekend with my family. I was planning on going to Target to grab a coffee grinder, but I didn't need to because there was one there for us already. The entire house was basically equipped this way. The host made many intentional efforts to make our stay much nicer than the average house that I'm used to booking.
The house also has a lot of charm and was both bigger and nicer than I thought I'd get from the pictures.

We booked this as a “last minute” trip for a funeral. Having not been in Wausau for a long time and limited choices with a pet, we took a chance and it was worth it. Melissa is a great host and answered all of our questions before booking. The location is easy to access all parts of Wausau and is in a quiet neighborhood. The house had all the amenities we needed and everything was in order with even a few extras; a nice touch indeed. The rooms are large and there was plenty of space for our family. I can see how the laundry area would be a real plus for the ski season as there is plenty of space along with a large, heavy duty rack for hanging things. This is a kid friendly house for sure with a kid size play table inside and a playhouse outside. Our dog was well secured in the back yard with no worries of her getting loose. Dog supplies were also on hand which we rarely find in other places we have stayed. We encountered a few mishaps of our own fault and Melissa was still very understanding and easy to work with. We will definitely look to book this house on our next visit to Wausau (assuming she will host us again ). Thank you Melissa for being a great host!!

My group had a great experience staying at this property due to its large size and and high level of comfort. Bedrooms had fans in the closet for use, the kitchen was large and appropriately furnished, and we loved the comfortable living room and the streaming services in the tv. We are definitely going to stay here again and thank Melissa for the great communication.

We head up to Wausau every year to ski Granite Peak and I have to say, by far, this has been our best place yet. It's not that the others were bad, it's just that this one was that nice. It was very clean, good amenities, the owner was very responsive and on top of everything it is a short 10 minute drive to the slopes. The title really says it all. I really can't say enough about this place. If you are heading to Wausau and need a place I would highly recommend Melissa's house.

Old house with a lot of charm, we had a great time.
The check-in process and key situation could be changed to include the key code pin.

Great older home about 10 minutes from Granite Peak. Melissa was a wonderful hostess. Coffee, tea, condiments, hot cocoa, dog treats, toiletries and more made this VRBO like a home away from home. Would book again if we went back to Wausau.

We all had a great time! House, location, furnishings, etc. all as advertised. Great communication and house was very well kept/cleaned. Thank you! Boys have already told Mom what a great time they had and will invite another family to join us next visit.

Wonderful home to come back to after a day of skiing. Many extras such as cookies and wine waiting for us. Melissa was very accommodating and easy to get a hold of. We would highly recommend and hope to be back.

We loved this house. Spacious rooms, comfortable beds and a fully appointed kitchen. The host thoughtfully left cookies, fresh flowers, cooking oil, milk and countless other details to make our stay easy and comfortable. Though the house is old, everything worked well and it was immaculate. We will happily stay here again.

What a lovely home! Very clean, bright, welcoming. Melissa is a great host. She had muffins waiting for us, wine and even treats for our dogs! And fresh flowers on the table. She kept in touch with us while in town and was there if we needed her. The location was great for us as I was doing family research in Wausau. And it's still close enough for the recreational things we did.

The property was very clean. Extra touchs to make us feel welcome. Close yo my daughter and son in law 4.5 blocks away. 7 min from the wedding venue

We booked this property in January for a trip in July/August for our yearly cousin visit. My cousin and her family live in Wausau but decided to join us for a staycation and so our daughters could spend the days/nights together. The amount of space and the bedroom setups were absolutely perfect for our trip. A small backyard BBQ was a wonderful way to spend time with some other family members who also live in the area on our first night. Lots of little touches made this trip really carefree. We luckily did not forget any items, but Melissa made sure we were stocked with emergency toiletries if need be. The beds were comfy, kitchen was fully stocked, and our pups were welcomed! The only thing I would change is to have access to the thermostat, but Melissa was more than willing to lower the AC temp when I reached out. We will definitely consider booking again!

This home was extremely clean. Melissa went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable. She had a few kind gestures to welcome us (6 sisters for the weekend) to her rental. If we come back to Wausau next year, we will MOST CERTAINLY rent from her again!! Thank you!!
